The Plans
All the activity was planned during the summer season,
my business don't allow any another period, from 27 July 1997 to
9 August 1997, SSB and RTTY from 10m to 160m excluding 30m. I did
manage to be ready to any situation to install the antennas
because I didn't have any previous information of which kind of
place could be available. The only one request was to have
assigned a quiet bungalow without neighbors avoiding any
interference during the night pile-up. Due flight freight
problem, no more that 20Kg/person, I was also in touch to found a
solution for my overweight baggage, I was only 25Kg over the
limit, but with the help of the Travel Organization and flight
company we have fixed also this problem. I had ordered a special
carrying case in aluminum for the antenna and some spare part. My
goal was to have all the station in two baggage, these antenna
case and a usual flying handbag for the fragile equipment. The
antenna carrying case has been builded from a little company near
my city, that produce a limited number of any kind of carrying
case, based on my measurement that including little bit more
space for transporting the antenna, some aluminum tube as antenna
support, cramps , coax cable, and some spare part. The Handbag
seem not very large, but I fitted it with : Amplifier, Radio,
Power Supply, accessories, footswitch, solder, screwdriver,
connectors and some little parts.
